A SchOOner'S HOrrible Find

The schooner Willie McGowan from Ban- quero, has arrived at Shellburne, N. $. She reports speaking the schooner Georgie Harold of Lockport, which reports having spoken another schooner, the crew of which had boarded 8 fish nS vessel adrift some days pre- viously, and found the bodies of several men floating in the cabin. The vessel was drifting helplessly about at the mercy of the elements. The bodies were in a decomposed state. The remainder of the crew had evidently abandon ed the craft some time before or else had been lost. The latter is probably the case, as it is not likely they would leave the bodies of their comrades in the condition in which they were found. The flesh on the head of one of the drowned men had been eaten partly away, and all the bodies presented horrible sight. The name of the vessel is not given, but she is be- heyed to be the Ocean Bride, of Boston.

Chips From the Ties.

The Northern Pacific people yesterday re-
ceived information from Dakota that the
weather had moderated i'll that territory a
good deal so that the ground has thawed out
and that the farmers have gone to ploughing
This is looked upon very favorably, as it will
ease the demand for cars As it was so cold
last week and the week before that the farm
ers could do no ploughing, they took their
wheat to the elevators in immense quantities.
1t is reported that there were immense pro-
cessioms of wheat teams all along the line of
railroad. This will ease up the demand for
cars, which will be very welcome to the rail
roads.
Emigration over the Northern Pacific road
to Washington territory is surprising every
body. Not less than two through emf
grant seepers go ont every day to
Tacoma, Spokane and other points. These
emigrants are farmers mostly, and are
them have some money. Most of them come
from Michigan. Ohio, Indiana. Illinois. Mis-
souri,, Iowa and Wisconsin.
The Minnesota & Northwestern officers
deny in the most emphatic manner the state
ment that has been made to the effect that it
was cutting rates to Chicago and St. Paul
through the means of round trip tourist
tickets.
About 200 Iron workers employed in the
Manitoba shops were discharged yesterday,
the reason being that, the extension of that
road into Montana having been completed,
they are not needed.
The 2,O00-mile tickets on the Minnesota &
Northwestern are good on the Mason CITY 4
Fort Dodge. Central Iowa, Wabash Western
and the ST. Paul & Duluth road.

road, left last night for Chicago to attend the

WAR TO THE KNIFE.
That is What the Canadian Pacific
Says it Proposes for the North
ern Pacific.

That is What the Canadian Pacific
Says it Proposes for the North
ern Pacific.
Traffic Manager George Odds, of the
Canadian Pacific. who was in Chicago
few days ago made some very warlike
statements to representative of the
Times in regard to transcOntinental
lines. He said the Canadian Pacific
was inclined to be peaceful on basis
that would give it a fair shareiof the Pa
cific coast business, and that share it
would have any way, whether 1t was
peace or war. The American roads said
to the foreign line that it was not en-
titled to any part of the traffic, but the
fact is it does participate in it, and this
fact cannot be denied or prevented. The
Canadian Pacific, he claimed, could carry
freight cheaper, and did carry it cheaper.
Still, he thought the prospects were fair
for the consummation of an arrange
ment with the middle and southern
transcontinental lines that would be sat
isfactory to all parties. Mr.. Olds, how
ever, wanted it distinctly understood
that this talk of compromise did not in
clude the Northern Pacific, with which
it was war to the knife. Mr.. Cakes, in
invading the Red river valley, had
thought that he was using a large-sized
club to belabor the Canadian Pacific; in
effect it had turned out to be very
small one. The wheat-grower of that
section gets cents more buShel for
his wheat than his
DAKOTA COMPETITOR.
A large mill at Winnipeg was absorb
ing a greater portion OF the wheat; an
other one of capacity of 1000 barrels
1ail x-x II thnrn
would be no wheat for the Northern Pa
cific to haul out after it perfected its
connections. He thought that the
Northern Pacific was in bad way,
brought on by Mr.. Cakes policy. The
Manitoba was cutting the life out of
it in the East and as far west as Helena,
Mont. and was in earnest in its fight
so earnest that, while the Manitoba"
had no animosity toward the Union Pa
cific, Mr.. Potter'S most earnest appeal
to President Hill could not, or did not.
move him in the matter of making low
through rates to Montana territory. AS
the Canadian Pacific, whether it got the
business or not, virtually made the rates
out of the Puget Sound county and the
western territory. the Northern Pacific
was between the upper and neither mill
stones.
1t being suggested to Mr.. Olds that a
peace could hardly be patched up be-
tween the Canadian Pacific and Compel
ing transcOntinental lines which did not
include the Northern Pacific as a factor.
he replied that that was an affair for the
American roads to settle between them
selves. He was fully authorized to treat
for a settlement with the southern trans
continental lines, but had imperative
orders from Presiden Van Horne not to
include the Northern Pacific in the COM
promise, and the Canadian Pacific would
certainly not become a party to any
agreement which included that COM
Dany.

NOTIFIED TO STOP II.
The Interstate Commission
Gives the Northern Pacific
a Friendly Tip,
Regarding the Sale Of Land
Seekers and Immigrant
Tickets.
The Canadian Pacific Is Deter
mined on a Bloody
Fight,
And Will Make No CompPo-
mise With the Northern
Pacific.

WASHINGTON, Nov. IA decision is
rendered in the case of W. U. Smith
against the Northern Pacific Railroad
company. by the interstate commission,
with a written opinion by Commissioner
Walker, of which the following is syl
labus: The Northern Pacific Railroad
company has been accustomed to sell
tickets to land seekers or explorers. at
its land Office in st. Paul, thus enabling
them to go out on the line of its road
and inspect the land which it has for
sale, at about oDe-halI of the regular
rate for rOund-trip tickets. 1t has also
been accustomed to sell tickets to set
tiers passing through st. Paul with their
effects, and who are about to purchase
railroad or public land at low rates. These
explorers and settlers are carried on the
regular trains. After the interstate
commerce law went into effect,
the sale of these special
classes of tickets was for
time discontinued, but was resumed in
NJ ay and complaint made to the COM
mission. An investigation of the mat
ter was had at Minneapolis and briefs
were filed. The commission now de-
cideS that the interstate commerce law
does not permit the sale of tickets to
any class of people at rates different
from those established for the general
public. The fact that it is very desir-
able for the defendant to make sale OF
its lands is not reason for discriminate
ing in favor of explorers or settlers.
The same reason would apply in case
company should desire to stimulate its
freight traffic or any other branch of its
business by the use of reduced rates or
free transportation to customers.
That the claim that the
settlement of the Western
territories should be promoted by Spe-
cial facilities of transportation to emf
grants, is claim proper to be addressed
to the legislative body, but not for con-
sideratiOn in interpreting in the pres
ent statute; and. moreover, the company
is able, by excursion rates open to all,
and making allowances upon the price
charged for its land of part or all of cost
of tickets to perhaps accomplish the de-
sired object to sufficient extent with
out violation of law. The means, Occu-
patton or purpose of parties are not
proper considerations upon which to
found determinations among them. The
Northern Pacific Railroad company is,
therefore, notified to desist from selling
either of said classes of tickets at rates
less than the regular rates charged to
the public.
